The detail on this is incredible! So correct me if I'm wrong; it comes with his Phase 2 Body, Head, Jetpack, 6 of his Different Hand Positions, A Stand, His Helmet, Holograms (of Yoda, a Clone Trooper, Palpatine, and Kenobi) a holo projecter, his DC-15.A, DC-15.S Carbine, and 2 DC-17s

[@BSGNUT]

Hello Justin. Love all your videos and reviews! Now, in regards to the helmet and the weathering being printed on rather than being hand painted, it's not necessarily a "cheat" way to do this. I have experience working for former Galoob and Hasbro Toys in the mid to late 90's as a Designer on the Star Wars lines and, part of this technology which has significantly advanced since my time is the tampo printing process on toys (especially high end collectibles such as this). One of the most expensive phases of toy manufacturing is paint applications. With today's highly advanced tampo printing technology, it allows toys to have more accurate and more realistic deco applications. It also saves more money rather than having it individually applied by hand using a mask and spray paint operation. Also, with the tampo printing, it also allows for a good quality controlled consistency with the deco so all the figures will appear exactly identical. When I was working for the toy companies back then, the tampo printing tech was starting to evolve more and more and we were starting to discover just how much more we could do with detailed and intricate designs and deco applications (instead of having to figure out layers of different paints which would add up in manufacturing costs - thus leading to toys having higher price points). One such example of where today's tampo printing is super beneficial is in action figures' eyes. We are able to get a lot more colors and depth applied adding to the realism. If everything on a Hot Toys figure was still completely hand painted or spray masked, the price points of the Hot Toys figures would be much higher considering how intricate these figures are. Then on top of that, add the various materials used and we might talking a $250 figure that might be double the cost. OR, they would have to significantly reduce the number of paint and deco applications on the figure just to keep it within that price point. It's something we had to do all the time with Micro Machines Action Fleet toys and Action figures. This is why Hasbro Star Wars Black Series figures are quite high in price. It's the amount of paint operations to achieve more collector grade details compared to one of their more standard type SW figures.

[@BSGNUT]

But, in any case, despite my long winded babbling of information you probably already know very well of (sorry about that), I really love and appreciate your review videos. Your vlogs are among some of the best and really help me decide what figures I want to buy next. Cheers, mate! Stay safe and in good health from a fan in the USA!

The blaster rifle you labeled "Big-Blaster" was previously identified as the DC-15A but was recently changed to the DC-15 in the Star Wars Canon, although, I would wager both names are acceptable.

He’s dope!

[@jthevisionary]

LETS GOO JUSTIN THANKS FOR POSTING EARLY!!!

[@JustinsCollection]

No probs!

[@darthqui-gon5986]

My one complaint about Cody is I think his right arm should have a magnet. I had such a hard time getting it to stay on posing him. But I got it to work and I've tried 2 other poses to see if the arm stayed on. Knock on wood it has. I just got in yesterday from Sideshow I got two weeks to check him out because if it keeps happening I'll probably return him. As much as I don't wasn't to he's an incredible figure. Every day I'm going to test him by doing new poses each day. I still need to find that perfect pose.

[@JustinsCollection]

True that would have been a good idea

[@darthqui-gon5986]

One thing I really like is that the hand pegs come off and on nice and easy. My Anakin is like that to. But my Darth Maul I've broken 3 hand pegs on him. I had to buy some on ebay. Which was kinda pricy buy a second pair of hands to get the pegs lucky the guy was cool enough to trough in another set of pegs so now I have four extra sets. If I can get the pegs off were it connects to the arm it's easy. I fill a small bowl with hot water and the side that connects to hand comes right off. That's were they kept breaking. I wish they'd do the hand pegs like Sideshow.

[@JustinsCollection]

They do!

[@JustinsCollection]

That’s a weird way of thinking

[@Dolfringme]

@@JustinsCollection I think its pretty normal. When you pay a certain amount of money and wait all that time you want what you are now invested into to pay out what you put in. Though the Hot Toys Commander Cody is a beautiful figure and has a lot of interesting extras for me some of the issues are the base is a bit lacking, the paint besides the head sculpt are not weathered enough, it took an extremely long time and kept being pushed back for seemingly nothing, and its a bit smaller than I was expecting. The reason most likely is because between that time I got other figures in that I felt outshined the figure and in the end I kept comparing it to those that for a similar price I felt fit my needs in a figure better. To each their own but for me I just lost the love for the figure. Still a favorite character but I decided to get other stuff instead.
